Analyzing the color change of cephalopods
01/01/2007 | Elhuyar

Octopuses, squids and corners have a special capacity to hide in the place where they live, since the skin coincides with the color and intensity of the predominant light in the environment. Massachusetts marine biologists analyze the skin of these animals. One layer of the skin has been seen to be made up of leukocytes. In the composition of these cells appear translucent and reflective proteins without color that imitate the environmental light of the skin.
